An Open Book

A sincere thank you and my appreciation for the sympathy and kind words on the previous page (I need to get around to responding directly to comments again LOL) you're all very kind, haha though I played myself making author's notes about my personal troubles because then nobody comments on the comic I spent weeks working on LMAO! But seriously, you're all wonderful. :)

Oof, pounding migraine makes writing notes difficult, but I'm excited to get a page done. There's a logjam of pages in the half-finished phase still, and this one was even split in half so I could get it posted.

Lezzaria absolutely thinks of Sadick as her pet! And she's right of course, Sadick had been rather acerbic toward LaBelle when she was wolfy.

Oh yeah a story refresher might be in order haha! Sadick brings up the beauty curse, that was Kavonn's “lesson” for being attacked at Samrick's big party. He declared her actions were to reflect in her appearance. She used his staff to give herself a glam makeover before, which lead him to conclude that she was a little vain about her appearance and thus thought it a fitting punishment.

LaBelle gamed this curse to turn into a monstrous troll-wolf to protect her friends from the Skzzldrix and Welfs who attacked them on the road to Samrick's. She hurt her friends to become a beast, then turned it against their enemies.
Thanks to a selfless action, saving her friends while putting her life on the line, it shattered Kavonn's curse– with unintended results.

Sadick's curse is Lezzaria, who is there to be his shoulder judge and discipline him when he's out of line. The only reason that Lezzaria was absent during Sadick's meeting with Samrick was out of respect for the Demon King requesting a private audience. Lezzaria does not know that Sadick is the Elf Prince, she's not a psychic! She does have a way of tracking him down if he wanders off on her though. Lezzaria is primarily there to help him get over his fear of demons– and we'll be getting into where that distrust comes from soon! Most demons in Kellwood are just people. The Fae will probably give you more trouble than the average Kellwood demon, but as a member of the Fae family himself, Sadick is a little bit biased.(And that's in spite of seeing his body double Melalon stabbed to death by a fairy and LaBelle stabbed by a Skzzldrix!)
